[Two male leads + equally matched leads + angst + a groveling pursuit + mutual first loves + happy ending]
[Sharp-tongued, hard-hearted, homophobic bottom vs. cheerful, naive actor top]

Fed up with city life, Xia Qi comes to a small island to recuperate. Every day, he gazes at the awful sea and lies on a rickety, worn-out wooden bed, wondering if life is worth living, until all he can see is red and a pair of anxious eyes.
He hears the man say:
"You can't die here!"
"I need to make money from this guesthouse!!!!!!"
Xia Qi lets him bandage his wounds and sneers, "Do you know how I found out about this island?"
Duan Diezhou: "I'm all ears! q(≧▽≦q)"
Xia Qi: "I asked an AI which island was the least popular."
Duan Qizhou: "(*  ̄︿ ̄)"

A bit player in the entertainment industry and a resident of Kongkong Island, Duan Diezhou hasn't had a guest in eight hundred years. His first is incredibly strange. He never leaves his room, barely touches the meals delivered to him, but his grandpa says he's pretty handsome, almost as handsome as Duan himself.
Duan Qizhou isn't convinced: "I'll have to see for myself."
The guy is definitely strange, and definitely handsome. He's also sharp-tongued, overbearing, and unreasonable, and Duan Qizhou doesn't like him.
He really, really doesn't like him.
So why does Xia Qi's rejection hurt so much?
